Real-Time in Real-Time: Best Practices for Revit and Enscape

Don’t settle for still image rendering when you can fully explore your building design from every angle and location.

Recent advances in game engines and graphics processing allows us to go from Revit to real-time in practically real time. But getting beautiful results isn’t accidental – it takes careful attention to detail often overlooked when creating still image renderings.

Let’s begin by focusing on three key areas in Revit: lighting, materials, family components. By the end of this session, you’ll be able to create beautifully compelling and time saving virtual presentations of your Revit project that improve the decision-making process of your design teams, consultants and clients.

Make sure if you are in Calgary or Edmonton on these dates that you sign-up for this free event today!

Register for cBIMc event in Calgary on Tuesday, May 16th, from 6:00 – 8:00 pm here

The Dynamaniacs of Calgary and Edmonton, or DoC & DoE for short, are Dynamo user groups that will allow people that are interested in Dynamo, at any level, a place to get together and discuss all things Dynamo.

While DoC & DoE are being called “Dynamo” user groups, the plan is to not restricted them to just Dynamo topics, but expand them over time to include related Design Technology topics like Iterative Design (ID), Generative Design (GD), Computational Design (CD), Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR) to name a few.

If you are going to be in the Calgary area on Wednesday, September 21sth between 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm you should attend the cBIMc meeting, it’s FREE!

A Single Source of Truth
Bringing a Large-Scale Project Together in the Cloud

With a project team spanning multiple studios nationwide as well as several international external partners, DIALOG realized a single source of truth would be a must for the success of the $1B ICE District project in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Using A360 Collaboration for Revit cloud-based worksharing environment in conjunction with IMAGINiT Clarity for task automation, they sought to eliminate the common and costly hurdles of the standard FTP-centric workflow.

Achieving alignment by way of extensive BIM execution planning and coordination in advance, full collaboration was enabled from the single source shared files. To further improve internal efficiencies, DIALOG leveraged IMAGINiT Clarity to run essential scheduled tasks in the background, minimizing interruptions for their design and production teams through each project stage.
